Abstract

A method for managing a multi-vessel seismic system comprising a first vessel, having a recording system and towing at least one streamer integrating seismic sensors, and a second vessel, comprising at least one seismic source performing shots. The second vessel sends to the first vessel, via a radio link, a plurality of series of shot predictions. For each shot, the second vessels activates the seismic source according to the predictions and sends to the first vessel, via the radio link, shot data relating to the shot. The first vessel activates the recording system, in order to record seismic data, either non-continuously and according to a last received series of shot predictions, or continuously. If, by analyzing a received series of shot predictions, the first vessel detects that it has not received the shot data relating to at least one performed shot, then the first vessel sends a request to the second vessel and receives in response the missing shot data. For each performed shot and the related shot data, the system selects seismic data as a function of the related shot data, and combines the selected seismic data with the related shot data in order to obtain combined data whose interpretation allows to obtain a seabed representation.

Description

Method for managing many ship seismic systems
Technical field
The present invention relates to geophysical data collection.
More precisely, the present invention relates to marine seismic acquisition, this marine seismic acquisition needs some ships, with to sea The bottom earth's crust is imaged.
Specifically, the present invention relates to a kind of method for managing many ship seismic systems, many ship seismic system bags Include:First ship (also referred to as " monitors ship (listener vessel) "), and which has record system and draws at least one towing cable Integrated form seismic sensor;And second ship (also referred to as " fire ship (shooter vessel) "), its be included in determination when Carve at least one focus for performing explosion.The method comprising the steps of:Seismic sensor is recorded by record system to be obtained The geological data for obtaining;And enter by the geological data for being recorded (the first file) and about the explosion data (the second file) of explosion Row combination, to obtain data splitting (the 3rd file), by being interpreted to the data splitting, is obtained in that seabed represents (seabed representation)。
In fact, many ship seismic systems generally include the ship of more than two, for example, if wherein have some fire ships and A dry monitoring ship.Additionally, some ships not only can as fire ship but also can as monitor ship.However, hereinafter only considering a pair The simple scenario of ship, the pair of ship include a fire ship and a monitoring ship.In fact, any complicated many boat systems all may be used To resolve into the simple scenario of multiple aforementioned types, this is because:
Despite the presence of some fire ships, but these fire ships can be in same time explosion;
Despite the presence of some monitoring ships, but the working method of per monitoring ship is all identical with fire ship;
Although a ship not only as fire ship but also be able to can may only have as monitoring ship, this ship every time A kind of working condition.
The present invention is particularly applicable to Petroleum Exploration Industry, but it is also possible to be applied to geophysics used in environment at sea Any field of data acquisition network.
Background technology
In order to marine seismic acquisition is performed in survey area, focus (rifle, vibration source etc.) and seismic sensors are usually used Device.Sensor is disposed in the cable, referred to as towing cable or linear antenna.Some towing cables are used together, and just form thousands of biographies The array of sensor.Focus and towing cable are drawn by ship.Ship typically draws one or more towing cable, and can be equipped with (or not It is equipped with) focus.
In order to geophysical data is collected at sea environment, start by the one or several of at least one fire ship traction Individual immersion focus, with the energy for producing pulse or continuously sweep.Each layer of the signal produced by each focus through the earth's crust, And sensor (hydrophone) capture in the towing cable drawn by least one monitoring ship by reflected signal.
Subsequently, the data that all the sensors are collected within the time period (referred to as record length) of several seconds by record system Store into data set (the typically file of SEG-D forms).Geological data to including in SEG-D files is interpreted, so as to Calculate the 3D rendering of the earth's crust.
The theoretical position of focus and seismic sensor when gathering every time is in the specific text for being referred to as " reservation chart (preplot) " It is described in shelves:In accordance with the requirement of reservation chart, the image quality of the earth's crust is higher.Thanks to well known measurement handss Section (GPS, RGPS, sound device, compass, depth transducer etc.), is able to know the actual bit of all devices (hydrophone and rifle) Put.
Gatherer process is that controlling and monitor, the integrated navigation system act as by integrated navigation system (INS): According to the geometry in reservation chart, the position of sensor and focus is calculated, order about ship and navigate by water along their collection path;With And start focus to perform earthquake-capturing in desired location.
By swapace event (referred to as target center) and time-event (referred to as explosion (shots)), it is possible to achieve (focus with Between sensor) this time and spatial synchronization, wherein spatial event gives the position that every ship should locate and (is thus given The position of sensor and focus), and time-event gives the time for starting focus.
In order to further improve the quality of seismic imaging, seismic survey is performed in the way of the operation of many ships at present, with over the ground Shell carries out wide-azimuth illumination.In the case, initial pulse is transferred to via radio modem line and participates in the one of exploration Or many ships.In many ship operating process, a kind of known solution is that explosion management is focused on a specific ship On, the ship is referred to as main ship (master vessel).For example, this main ship draws many earthquake towed cables and also draws one or many Individual focus (for example, rifle).
The positional information of all ships is all sent to this main ship, main ship then according to reservation chart come generate all ships space and Time-event.Flow of information obtains real-time exchange by wireless channel, however, due to exist decay, the distance between each ship it is longer, Path is more and there is floating barrier, therefore this exchange is not absolutely reliable.
With reference toFig. 1, this schematically shows an example of this many ship marine seismic acquisitions.
As described above, for simplicity, it is considered to the simple scenario of a pair of ships, the pair of ship includes traction focus G2 The monitoring ship V1 of many towing cable S1 of fire ship V2 and traction of (for example, rifle).Moreover, it is assumed that it is main ship to monitor ship V1, and it is quick-fried Broken ship V2 is subordinate ship.The moving parallel of main ship V1 is in subordinate ship V2.(for example, towing cable S1 includes earthquake signal receiving sensor Hydrophone), for receiving signaling reflex from focus G2.
Focus G2 is controlled by the energy source controller on subordinate ship V2.Towing cable S1 received signals are by earthquake record Device is recorded on main ship V1.
The signaling reflex of the sent signals of focus G2 needs to be recorded at towing cable S1.For this purpose, for accurate data For collection so that monitor the record system and fire ship (being subordinate ship in this example) on ship (ship based in this example) On focus be synchronously particularly important.Although however, the record system on any given ship can be with the focus on same ship Accurate synchronization, but the record system for making way for monitoring on ship is proved to be and is difficult to the focus precise coordination being located on fire ship Realize.
When the record system on main ship is set to record the seismic reflection of the focus on subordinate ship, will occur One example of the problem.Focus transmission explosion order of the main ship to subordinate ship.Main ship computer sends quick-fried to subordinate ship focus There is less but obvious time delay between the moment of broken order and the subordinate ship actual moment for causing explosion.Cause the original of this time delay Because there is intrinsic time delay in the receives link between computer, wireless radio transmission and each ship.
The detonation moment of any focus, and the moment all referred to as " event that any specific reflection is received by towing cable (events) ", these events are required synchronous.Those skilled in the art will also be appreciated that synchronously existing between other events It is same most important during many ship seismic prospectings.The example of such other events is included:Specific ship bottom specified point Over the sea Moment, the Startup time of focus on specific ship, etc..
According to canonical system, VHF radio links for the transmission events between two ships (main ship and subordinate ship), its In, for example, phaselocked loop (PLL) circuit is used for the event that detection is transmitted on a radio link.Based on the time delay for calculating, in spy Timing is carved, and radio link two ends can produce " ignition " and " time break (time break) " order, thus be hopeful to make Recorder is in the moment start recording about the same with the ignition moment of focus.However, this system needs the wireless of stable operation Fax transmission link, and the system also needs to periodic calibration.Calibration typically " offline " is performed, therefore between repeatedly calibrating Timing error may be produced, these timing errors are not detected.
In seismic survey process, for example, when two ships navigate by water the both sides of the metallic barrier in offshore platform etc. When, the radio link between two ships (or more ships) may be lost or break down (disconnect).
If losing when radio link is transferred to the focus of subordinate ship in explosion order or breaking down, explosion order will Will not be received, explosion would not occur, and the ship will miss a place for needing data.
Therefore, such loss of radio communication (radio link) can hinder main ship accurately to understand the position of other ships, and And/or person can hinder other ships to receive time and spatial event so that explosion it is not accurate enough in the time and/or spatially or Explosion is caused not occur.The image of the earth's crust is changed thus.

Specific embodiment
Fig. 2In shown specific embodiment, many ship seismic systems include fire ship V2 and monitor ship V1.
As described above, for convenience of description, can only consider this pair of ships (comprising a fire ship and a monitoring Ship) simple scenario because any complicated many boat systems can be decomposed into multiple such simple scenarios.
Fire ship V2 includes:
- integrated navigation system INS2, when which is used to determine ignition for each blow-up point in predetermined " reservation chart " Between;
- radio communications system R2, its be designed to by radio link come at least with monitor ship V1 exchange datas;
- clock reference CR2, which is synchronous with the gps clock of second ship (not shown);
- focus G2, which includes (such as) one or more rifle;
- gun controller GC2, which can send order to focus G2 and generate explosion data.By means of integrated navigation system The binary electrical signal that INS2 sends, gun controller GC2 sends order, to cause explosion.All it is occur in signal per separate explosion Cause after change.When explosion is caused, the binary output signal of gun controller GC2 is used to determine true blasting time (also referred to as FTB, i.e. " live time break (Field Time Break) ").After every separate explosion, gun controller GC2 is generated Information (pressure, the rifle being activated, depth) about rifle, these information aggregations are at " pipette tips (gun header) " (also referred to as GH) In.Gun controller GC2 provides the explosion data about each explosion to integrated navigation system INS2, i.e. true blasting time FTB And pipette tips GH.
Monitoring ship V1 includes:
- integrated navigation system INS1;
- radio communications system R1, its be designed to by radio link come at least with fire ship V2 exchange datas;
- clock reference CR1, which is synchronous with the gps clock (not shown) of the first ship;
Multiple seismic sensor SS1 (for example, hydrophone) on-towing cable S1;
- alignment system PS1 (GPS, DGPS, RGPS), which enables integrated navigation system INS1 to calculate on towing cable S1 All seismic sensor SS1 position;
- acoustic controller AC1, which controls acoustic modem and integrated navigation system INS1 is calculated The position of all seismic sensor SS1;
- seismic recorder SR1, which is designed to record the file comprising the geological data from seismic sensor SS1 (under In the description of text, the file is also referred to as " the first file ").Seismic recorder SR1 is sent by integrated navigation system INS1 Binary signal is starting.Seismic recorder SR1 supplement obtain that fire ship is transmitted and integrated navigation system INS1 collected by Excessive data (pipette tips GH, true blasting time FTB, the position SP of focus).
When seismic survey is carried out, can determine event and operation exact time and can be between different operations It is particularly important to set up definite time relationship.Specifically, it is essential that so that be sent to monitor ship V1 earthquake The binary signal Complete Synchronization of the binary signal of recorder SR1 and the gun controller GC2 for being sent to fire ship V2.
After every separate explosion, monitor:
First file, the geological data provided by the seismic sensor SS1 which includes earthquake towed cable S1;And
Second file, referred to as RH files (that is, " record head (record header) "), its include with fire ship V2 The related information (hypocentral location SP when pipette tips GH, true blasting time FTB and explosion) of explosion.
These first and second files are subsequently combined, to form complete the 3rd file (also referred to as SEG-D files).
During one earthquake exploration, the integrated navigation system INS1 for monitoring ship V1 records relevant seismic sensor network All information:Positional information (being obtained by GPS, DGPS or RGPS), pressure information (being obtained by pressure transducer), depth Information (by depth transducer obtain), about acoustic mode and the information about blasting time etc..These information records exist In LOG files (such as, it then follows Ukooa P294 specifications), the LOG files are used for the sensor position for determining the particular shot time Put.
Subsequently, represent to obtain complete seabed, SEG-D files is associated with LOG files.
With reference now to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, show method according to a first embodiment of the present invention.In figure 3, supervise Listen the radio link normal work (i.e., it is possible to use) between ship V1 and fire ship V2.In the diagram, this radio link goes out Existing failure (i.e. it is impossible to use).It should be noted that Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 schematically illustrate the sequence of operations on time shafts.
Fig. 3Schematically illustrate in normal condition (radio link normal work between monitoring ship V1 and fire ship V2 Make) under and discontinuous logging mode (assume seismic recorder SR1 be discontinuous record system, it is necessary to open in every separate explosion Move to proceed by record) under, the management performed by blast operations and record operation.
The step of being performed by monitoring ship V1 and fire ship V2 is will be described in now.
Fire ship V2 knows self-position, itself speed and reservation chart, and it periodically (for example, every one second) can calculate A series of explosions prediction (TP, TP', TP "), the explosion prediction is including the moment for being designed for ensuing n times explosion.Example Such as, N=30, and continuous explosion prediction series TP, TP', TP " can be labeled as:
·TP(T0(shot1),T0(shot2),T0(shot3)…T0(shotN))
·TP'(T0'(shot1),T0'(shot2),T0'(shot3)…T0'(shotN))
·TP”(T0”(shot1),T0”(shot2),T0”(shot3)…T0”(shotN))
Every one second, the new prediction series with timestamp (time of calculating) can be sent to monitoring ship by fire ship V2 V1。
In examples as shown in figure 3, it is assumed that the first last blasting time is T0 " (shot1), i.e. be labeled as TP " be The row given time.Therefore, in T0 " (shot1) place, enabling signal 31 sends by the integrated navigation system INS2 of fire ship V2 Gun controller GC2 is given, so that the gun controller performs ignition (that is, carrying out the first explosion).After the first explosion, rifle control Device GC2 provides message 32 to integrated navigation system INS2, and message 32 includes blasting time FTB and pipette tips GH.Subsequently, integrated navigation Message 33 is sent to system INS2 the integrated navigation system INS1 for monitoring ship V1 via radio link, and message 33 is comprising relevant The data of the first explosion, i.e. blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and hypocentral location (SP).
Have been received by before finally predicting series TP " monitoring ship V1 can make decision, with T0 " (shot1) place will Enabling signal 34 is sent to seismic recorder SR1, so as to the seismic recorder start recording.Seismic recorder SR1 generates the One file 30, the first file 30 include the geological data from seismic sensor SS1, and the data and T0 " (shot1) Time stamp data (time tag) functional dependence joins.
In T0 " (shot1) plus predefined time delay D (possibly positive or negative) place, integrated navigation system INS1 will be opened Dynamic signal 35 is sent to acoustic controller AC1 (to update the position of seismic sensor), and/or is sent to and carries out quality control Any equipment (for example, gravimeter, magnetometer etc.) needed for system etc..
Additionally, the integrated navigation system INS1 for monitoring ship V1 calculates record head RH files (the second file) the RH is literary Part is sent to seismic recorder SR1, and the RH files include the data (blasting time of relevant first explosion for receiving before FTB, pipette tips GH and hypocentral location SP).This record head RH is sent to seismic recorder SR1 in message 36.
Finally, by the first file 30 is combined with the second file (RH files), seismic recorder SR1 generates (arrow 37 Represented operation) about the very complete SEG-D files (the 3rd file) of the first explosion.
In a variant, the first file is combined with the second file not by seismic recorder SR1 performing, but by Another equipment for monitoring ship V1 (for example, is performed in seismic survey process) performing, or is monitored on ship V1 by not being located at Equipment (for example, is performed after exploration) performing.
As shown in Figure 3, after time (T0 " (the shot1)) past of the first explosion, new circulation can subsequently be started (to prepare the second explosion).The starting of this new circulation sends new one group corresponding to fire ship V2 and continuously predicts series, described pre- Surveying series of markings is:
·TPn(T0n(shot2),T0n(shot3),T0n(shot4)…T0n(shotN))
·TPn+1(T0n+1(shot2),T0n+1(shot3),T0n+1(shot4)…T0n+1(shotN))
·TPn+2(T0n+2(shot2),T0n+2(shot3),T0n+2(shot4)…T0n+2(shotN))
In examples as shown in figure 3, it is assumed that the second last blasting time is T0n+2(shot2), i.e. be labeled as TPn+2 Series given by time.Other steps of this new circulation will not be described again.
Fig. 4Schematically illustrate non-normal condition (radio link not monitor ship V1 and fire ship V2 between just Often work) under and aforementioned discontinuous logging mode under, the management performed by blast operations and record operation.
In the example shown in fig. 4, the time period that radio link breaks down is represented by shadow region 410.Change sentence Talk about, it is assumed that monitor ship V1 and do not receive explosion prediction series TP " to TPn-1.Received before radio link breaks down Last series be TP', and first series received after radio link again normal work is TPn
The step of being performed by monitoring ship V1 and fire ship V2 is will be described in now.
Series as shown in Figure 3, it is assumed that the first last blasting time is T0 " (shot1), i.e. be labeled as TP " to The time for going out.Therefore, in T0 " (shot1) place, enabling signal 31 is sent to rifle control by the integrated navigation system INS2 of fire ship V2 Device GC2 processed, so that the gun controller performs ignition (that is, carrying out the first explosion).After the first explosion, gun controller GC2 Message 32 is provided to integrated navigation system INS2, message 32 includes blasting time FTB and pipette tips GH.Subsequently, integrated navigation system Message 33 is sent to INS2 the integrated navigation system INS1 for monitoring ship V1 via radio link, and message 33 includes relevant first The data of explosion, i.e. blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and hypocentral location (SP).
Only know the prediction for finally receiving series TP'(rather than TP ") monitoring ship V1 make decision, with T0' (shot1) enabling signal 44 is sent to seismic recorder SR1 by (rather than T0 " (shot1)) place, so as to the seismic recorder Start recording.Seismic recorder SR1 generates the first file 40, and the first file 40 is comprising the earthquake number from seismic sensor SS1 According to, and the data and T0'(shot1) (rather than T0 " (shot1)) time stamp data (time tag) functional dependence Connection.
In T0'(shot1) plus predefined time delay D (possibly positive or negative) place, integrated navigation system INS1 will be opened Dynamic signal 45 is sent to acoustic controller AC1 (to update the position of seismic sensor), and/or is sent to and carries out quality control Any equipment (for example, gravimeter, magnetometer etc.) needed for system etc..
In this stage, the integrated navigation system INS1 for monitoring ship V1 cannot calculate RH files (the second file), because it Message 33 is not received by, and message 33 includes data (blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and the focus position about the first explosion Put SP).
When the integrated navigation system INS1 for monitoring ship V1 receive new prediction series (in the example shown in fig. 4 for TPn) when, it detects the explosion data not yet received about the first explosion itself.Subsequently, integrated navigation system INS1 please Ask RD1 to be sent to the integrated navigation system INS2 of (arrow 47) fire ship V2, and receive the message RD2 (arrow as response 48), message RD2 includes omission explosion data (blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and the hypocentral location about the first explosion SP)。
If some separate explosions (rather than institute in the example such as Fig. 4 is had been carried out during radio link breaks down The only once explosion shown), then the integrated navigation system INS2 of fire ship V2 can send message RD2, and message RD2 includes Close the omission explosion data (blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and hypocentral location SP) of all these explosions.
In the example shown in fig. 4, after message RD2 (arrow 48) is received, monitor the integrated navigation system of ship V1 INS1 calculates RH files (the second file) and the RH files is sent to seismic recorder SR1, before the RH files include The data (blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and hypocentral location SP) of relevant first explosion for receiving.This record head RH is in message Seismic recorder SR1 is sent in 46.
Finally, by the first file 40 is combined to the second file (RH files) (both of which is related with the first explosion), (the 3rd is literary for the very complete SEG-D files of relevant first explosions of seismic recorder SR1 generations (operation represented by arrow 49) Part).In order to perform this combination, seismic recorder SR1 can select the first file 40 about the first explosion (from T0'(shot1) Start recording), selection gist is actual time (the RH files that seismic recorder SR1 is received in message 46 of the first explosion In included information FTB).
However, due to having completed the first explosion (or any other explosion) during radio link breaks down, therefore There is time shift Δ t between following item:
Actual time (as detailed above, the integrated navigation system INS2 of the first explosion performed by fire ship V2 In T0 " (shot1) place enabling signal 31 is sent to into gun controller GC2);And
Plan in monitoring the prediction series TP' of last explosion received by the integrated navigation system INS1 of ship V1 with In the moment T0'(shot1 of the first explosion).
The time shift can be about:Δ t=T0'(shot1)-T0 " (shot1)
Due to there is the time shift, therefore, it is imperfect simultaneously about the first file (seismic data recording) possibility of the first explosion And it is incorrect.Therefore, must account for when making the first file synchronous to the second file (both of which is related with the first explosion) Time shift Δ t.For this purpose, know the value of Δ t, the part with the definite time correlation connection of the first explosion in the first file just can be obtained Geological data is selected in the geological data of (from T0'(shot1) start recording).This part of first file and the second file (RH files) is combined, to set up complete the 3rd file (SEG-D files).
In a variant, by the first file (or the part for the first file selected according to time shift Δ t) and second File combination is not by seismic recorder SR1 performing, but is performed (for example, in earthquake by another equipment for monitoring ship V1 Perform during exploration), or (for example, performed after exploration) performing by the equipment monitored on ship V1 is not located at.
According to another variant, if fire ship detects that radio link cannot be used, then fire ship meeting Stop generating the new explosion prediction series for updating, and (detect that radio link goes out according to the explosion prediction series for ultimately producing Last series before existing failure) ensuing explosion is performed, till radio link can be reused.Therefore Allow on ship V1 and fire ship V2 is monitored using identical predict (if radio link interruption detected immediately) or The prediction (if being just detected after onepull is performed) being substantially the same.
According to another variant, in series, the number N of included explosion prediction is variable and is fire ship speed Function.For example, the given maximum length in time for interrupting for radio link, the integrated navigation system INS2 of fire ship V2 are true The number N of the explosion prediction in fixed each series, it is determined that according to be fire ship speed and continuous demolition point between away from From.
With reference now to Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, show method according to a second embodiment of the present invention.In Figure 5, supervise Listen the radio link normal work (i.e., it is possible to use) between ship V1 and fire ship V2.In figure 6, this radio link goes out Existing failure (i.e. it is impossible to use).It should be noted that Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 schematically illustrate the sequence of operations on time shafts.
Fig. 5Schematically illustrate in normal condition (radio link normal work between monitoring ship V1 and fire ship V2 Make) under and continuous logging mode (assume that seismic recorder SR1 is only to start a continuous record system once, i.e. earthquake record Device SR1 need not start in every separate explosion) under, the management performed by blast operations and record operation.
The step of being performed by monitoring ship V1 and fire ship V2 is will be described in now.
The operation of fire ship V2 is as described in first embodiment described in reference diagram 3 above (for first circulation, referring to Prediction series TP, TP' and TP " and message 31,32 and 33).
Second embodiment is to monitor the operation of ship V1 with the difference of first embodiment, because seismic recorder SR1 It is continuous record system.
By the seismic recorder SR1 seismic data recording continuously provided by seismic sensor SS1 is continuous global the In one file 50.Each geological data or each geological data group and time tag (time in this global first file 50 Stamp) it is associated.These time tags from the clock reference CR2 synchronous with gps clock, the gps clock be monitor ship V1 and The common time base of fire ship V2.
Additionally, and first embodiment as shown in Figure 3, monitor ship V1 integrated navigation system INS1 calculate record head The RH files are simultaneously sent to seismic recorder SR1 by RH files (the second file), and the RH files include that what is received before has Close the data (blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and hypocentral location SP) of the first explosion.This record head RH is sent in message 36 Seismic recorder SR1.
First embodiment also shown in FIG. 3, in T0 " is (shot1) (possibly positive or negative plus predefined time delay D ) place, enabling signal 35 is sent to acoustic controller AC1 by integrated navigation system INS1.
The seismic recorder SR1 for monitoring ship V1 continuously restores true blasting time from record header file (the second file) FTB.For each true blasting time, seismic recorder SR1 chooses (select) quick-fried with equal to true from global first file 50 The associated geological data of the time tag of broken time FTB or geological data group.Therefore, seismic recorder SR1 is every separate explosion Generate specific record (specific first file).
Subsequently, by specific first file is combined with the second file (RH files), seismic recorder SR1 generates (arrow Operation represented by 57) relevant very complete the 3rd file (SEG-D files) per separate explosion.
In a variant, the first file is combined with the second file not by seismic recorder SR1 performing, but by Another equipment for monitoring ship V1 (for example, is performed in seismic survey process) performing, or is monitored on ship V1 by not being located at Equipment (for example, is performed after exploration) performing.
Fig. 6Schematically illustrate non-normal condition (radio link not monitor ship V1 and fire ship V2 between just Often work) under and aforementioned continuous logging mode under, the management performed by blast operations and record operation.
Example as shown in Figure 4, the time period that radio link breaks down are represented by shadow region 410.
The step of being performed by monitoring ship V1 and fire ship V2 is will be described in now.
The operation of fire ship V2 is as described in first embodiment described in reference diagram 5 above (for first circulation, referring to Prediction series TP, TP' and TP " and message 31,32 and 33).
Second embodiment is to monitor the operation of ship V1 with the difference of first embodiment, because seismic recorder SR1 It is continuous record system.
When radio link breaks down, the seismic recorder SR1 for monitoring ship V1 can not be received (by message 33) To the true blasting time FTB from fire ship V2.
As described above, monitoring ship V1 can continuously by the relevant not actuated seismic data recording from fire ship V2 In continuous global first file 50.Each geological data or each geological data group in this global first file 50 with The time tag (timestamp) provided by clock reference CR2 is associated, and the clock reference CR2 is synchronous with gps clock (described Gps clock is the common time base for monitoring ship V1 and fire ship V2).
In this stage, the integrated navigation system INS1 for monitoring ship V1 cannot calculate RH files (the second file), because it Message 33 is not received by, and message 33 includes data (blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and the focus position about the first explosion Put SP).
When the integrated navigation system INS1 for monitoring ship V1 receives new prediction series (in the example shown in Fig. 6 it is TPn) when, it detects the explosion data not yet received about the first explosion itself.Subsequently, integrated navigation system INS1 please Ask RD1 to be sent to the integrated navigation system INS2 of (arrow 47) fire ship V2, and receive the message RD2 (arrow as response 48), message RD2 includes omission explosion data (blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and the hypocentral location about the first explosion SP)。
If radio link break down during have been carried out some separate explosions (rather than only as Fig. 6 example in As shown in), then the integrated navigation system INS2 of fire ship V2 can send message RD2, and message RD2 is comprising relevant all The omission explosion data (blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and hypocentral location SP) of these explosions.
In the example shown in Fig. 6, after message RD2 (arrow 48) is received, the integrated navigation system of ship V1 is monitored INS1 calculates RH files (the second file) and the RH files is sent to seismic recorder SR1, before the RH files include The data (blasting time FTB, pipette tips GH and hypocentral location SP) of relevant first explosion for receiving.This record head RH is in message Seismic recorder SR1 is sent in 46.
Due to having completed many separate explosions during radio link breaks down, thus monitor ship V1 earthquake record (by The record that seismic recorder SR1 is carried out) time started should not be complete with the blasting time on fire ship V2 (true blasting time) It is exactly the same.But in the case, with discontinuous logging mode conversely, the data and the second file of the first file need not be made Data (having definite blasting time) are synchronous.In fact, be directed to each true blasting time, seismic recorder SR1 is from global the One file 50 chooses (select) geological data or geological data being associated with the time tag equal to true blasting time FTB Group.Therefore, seismic recorder SR1 is that every separate explosion generates specific record (specific first file).
Subsequently, by specific first file is combined with the second file (RH files), seismic recorder SR1 generates (arrow Operation represented by 57) relevant very complete the 3rd file (SEG-D files) per separate explosion.
In a variant, the first file is combined with the second file not by seismic recorder SR1 performing, but by Another equipment for monitoring ship V1 (for example, is performed in seismic survey process) performing, or is monitored on ship V1 by not being located at Equipment (for example, is performed after exploration) performing.
